The fruit, leaves, and roots of Elaeagnus multiflora Thunb. have been used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat cough, diarrhea, and itching. However, the anti-fatigue effects of E. multiflora fruit (EMF) extract have not been studied in detail. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of EMF on fatigue and exercise performance in BALB/c mice. EMF was orally administered to mice at four doses (10, 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg/day) for 2 weeks. The anti-fatigue activity was evaluated by determining the exhaustive swimming time. Blood lactate and glucose levels and serum lactate levels after a 10 min swimming time, as well as ammonia, creatine kinase (CK), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and glycogen contents after exhaustive swimming time were measured. The exhaustive swimming time of the EMF 200 group was significantly increased (p <0.01). The EMF groups showed significantly low levels of CK, BUN, LDH, and lactate compared with the control group (p <0.05). Increased liver glycogen was observed in the EMF 200 group (p <0.05). These results suggest that EMF can be utilized as an efficacious natural resource for its anti-fatigue effects.

마그네슘($Mg^{2+}$)은 325 개 이상의 생리적 및 생화학적 과정에 필수적인 조효소이며 신경활성, 심장근 감수성, 신경근 전달, 근수축, 혈관운동 긴장과 혈압 등의 신체활동과 관련된 일련의 과정에서 중요한 역할은 한다. 하지만 신체활동과 관련된 혈액 이온화 $Mg^{2+}$ ($iMg^{2+}$)에 관한 보고는 거의 없을 뿐만 아니라 혈액 총 $Mg^{2+}$을 측정한 연구결과들은 논란의 여지가 있다. 대사적 요구가 증가하는 단기간의 고강도 운동에서 혈액 $iMg^{2+}$의 변화를 측정하였다. 고강도의 수영운동 후에 혈액 산도, 혈당, 중탄산염, 산소 및 칼슘은 감소한 반면, 젖산, 이산화탄소, $iMg^{2+}$, 나트륨, 칼륨은 유효한 증가를 보였다. 고강도 수영에서 혈액 $iMg^{2+}$의 변화는 혈액 산도, 혈당, 중탄산염과 칼슘의 변화와는 역관계의 상관을 보인 반면, 젖산과 음이온차와는 정관계의 유의한 상관을 보였다. 이 결과는 단기간 고강도의 수영운동이 고마그네슘혈증을 야기할 수 있고 이는 대사성 및 호흡성 산증에 의한 근육내 $iMg^{2+}$의 증가에 수반하는 근육에서의 $iMg^{2+}$ 유출의 증가에 의한 것으로 판단된다.

The hot water extract of leather carp (Cyprinus carpio nudus) has been used as a nourishing tonic soup and as an aid for recovery from physical fatigue. In this study, we investigated the effect of leather carp extract on exercise performance in mice. Swimming endurance and forelimb grip strength were assessed following oral administration of the extract (once per day for 7 days) at a dose of $0.5 mg/10{\mu}L/g$ body weight. After 7 days, mice given the leather carp extract had significantly greater swimming endurance [$105{\pm}18s$ (P<0.05); 52% longer than day 0] and forelimb grip strength [$1.18{\pm}0.05$ Newton (P<0.01); 17% greater than day 0]. The extract increased muscle mass, but had little effect on body weight. Following the swimming exercise, blood glucose, glutathione peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase levels in extract-fed mice were significantly higher (145%, 131%, and 106%, respectively) than in the saline control group. Blood levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol were also significantly increased (128%) in mice given the extract compared to the controls. These results suggest that leather carp extract can improve physical exercise performance and prevent oxidative stress caused by exhaustive workouts.

Objectives In this study, we analyzed the effect of Dioscoreae Rhizoma on exercise practice ability and blood fatigue variable factor in the forced swimming test. Methods Male mice were divided into four group. Mice were administrated with saline, Discorae Rhizoma extracted by water (DRW), Discorae Rhizoma extracted by 30% ethanol (DRE), red ginseng (RG), orally once per day, for 1 week. Exercise performance was evaluated by exhaustive swimming time and weights. Glycogen contents of liver and soleus muscle were measured at the end of the experiment. In addition, the biochemical parameters such as asparate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), blood urea nitrogen, creatine, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), ammonia, triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC) and free fatty acid (FFA) were analyzed. Results Both DRW and DRE showed an improvement of swimming endurance compared with control group. Levels of ALT, ammonia, TG, TC and FFA were significantly decreased in both DRW and DRE compared with control group. Levels of AST, Creatine were significantly reduced in DRE group compared with control group. Moreover LDH showed only a tendency to increase in the DRW and DRE groups. Conclusions In summary, the present study showed that Dioscoreae Rhizoma improved in physical fatigue and exercise practice ability and DRE improved the superior than those of DRW.

Freshwater softshell turtle (Trionyx sinensis) extract has been used traditionally as a tonic soup, and to recover from physical fatigue. To support these claims, the forelimb grip strength of mice was measured after feeding a soft-shell turtle extract for 7 days. The T. sinensis extract significantly increased the grip strength to $1.25{\pm}0.07N$ (P<0.01), which is 16.8% higher than the force on day 0. After exercising, the blood glucose levels in extract-fed mice were 202% higher and urea levels were 73% lower, which were both significantly different than the levels observed after control treatment. Lactate dehydrogenase was significantly higher by 314%, and glutathione peroxidase increased by 165%. In addition, the obesity markers, serum triglyceride and cholesterol, decreased to 62% and 49%, respectively, after mice were fed the extract. These data show that the T. sinensis extract provided more energy for forelimb exercise, prevented protein catabolism and muscle fatigue, and decreased the oxidative stress caused by an exhaustive workout.

Physiological analysis of the physical exercise was made on 9 subjects performing mountain climbing. The course between two points (256 and 516 meters altitude) was 1,300 meters in distance and difference of vertical height was 260 meters making the mean grade of 20%. In the field, the heart rates during uphill or downhill walk were recorded by EKG radio-telemetry. In the laboratory, oxygen consumption was obtained by the recorded heart rates, using individual heart rate vs oxygen consumption diagram obtained by treadmill test. the following results were obtained. 1. Uphill walk time was 36.5 minutes, and during this period the mean heart rate was 149.0 heats/min and peak heart rate was 169.2 beats/min. The total heart beats during the uphill walk was 5.433 beats. 2. The ratio of individual mean heart rate during the uphill walk to the maximal heart rate distributed between 66.6% and 98.3%, and the mean of the total group was 83.1%. The ratio of peak heart rate of uphill walk to the maximal heart rate was 94.5% in the group. Thus uphill walk of a 20% grade mountain course was an exhaustive exercise. 3. Oxygen consumption during uphill walk was 2.22 l/min (ranged between 1.79 and 2.70 l/min) and the ratio of this to the resting oxygen consumption was 8.31. The peak value of oxygen consumption during uphill walk was 2.73 l/min and the ratio of this to the resting oxygen consumption was 10.39. 4. Energy expenditure during uphill walk showed a mean of 11.1 kcal/min and the peak expenditure rate was 13.6 kcal/min. The total energy expenditure during 36.5 minutes of uphill walk was 396 kcal. 5. In downhill walk, the time was 31.7 minutes, mean heart rate was 118.4 (ranged between 100.1 and 142.7) beats/min, and the peak heart rate was only 129.4 beats/min. The ratio of mean heart rate to the maximal heart rate was 66.3%. Total heart beats during downhill walk was 3,710 beats. The ratio of downhill oxygen consumption to the resting consumption was 5.70. The rate of energy expenditure was 7.5 kcal/min, and the total onery expenditure during the 31.7 minutes of downhill walk was 228 kcal. 6. The effect of training was manifest in the uphill walk and not in the downhill walk. After training in mountain course walk, i) the uphill time was shortened, ii) mean heart rate increased, iii) time vs heart rate curve became smooth and showed less frequent zig-zag, i.e., the depth of trough on the curve decreased and the magnitude was less than 10 beats. In non-trained subject the depth of trough on the curve was greater than 50 beats and appeared more frequently. 7. Mountain climbing is a good health promotion exercise. For the promotion of health the reasonable amount of uphill mountain walk exercise in a 20% grade course is a walk for 40 or 50 minutes duration once a week.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of endurance training and prolonged L-arginine supplementation on blood glucose, blood insulin, muscle glycogen, muscle glycogen synthase (GS), muscle nitric oxide (NO), muscle nitric oxide synthase (NOS), endurance performance. We equally divided 36 Sprague-Dawley mice to be distributed into control group, L-NMMA treated group and L-arginine treated group. The L-arginine treated group and L-NMMA treated group consumed 10 mg/kg/day of L-arginine and 5 mg/kg/day of L-NMMA for 6 weeks period. Mice of control group, L-arginine treated group, and L-NMMA treated groups performed swimming exercise training for 60 min once a day, 5 days per week for 6 weeks. Blood glucose had tendency to increase in L-arginine treated group than the control group, and insulin significantly increased in L-arginine treated group than the control group. L-arginine treated group showed significant increase in glycogen, GS, NO and NOS in the gastrocnemius muscle and soleus muscle compared to the control group. Whereas L-NMMA treated group showed the lowest glycogen, GS, NO and NOS in the gastrocnemius muscle and soleus muscle compared to control group and L-arginine treated group. Exhaustive swimming time had tendency to increase in L-arginine treated group compared to the value for control group. These reults indicate that endurance training and prolonged L-arginine supplementation appear to be effective in exhancing nitric oxide production, glycogen concentration and endurance performance.

규칙적인 운동이 면역력 증가에 도움을 주는 것이 일반적인 사실이지만 차고 건조한 환경에서의 격렬한 운동은 호흡기 질환의 일종인 운동 유발성 천식과 운동 유발성 알레르기 질환을 야기하고, 상기도 감염 등을 유발하기도 한다. 이는 수행되는 운동의 종류나 방법 등에 따라서 다르게 나타나며 운동 수행의 경험과 운동 환경 등에 따라서 상이하게 나타난다. 따라서 운동하는 환경이 야외에서 이루어지며 오존이나 먼지 등을 많이 접하면서 수행되는 운동과 동계 스포츠인 스키, 스노우보드, 스케이트 및 아이스하키와 같은 운동 수행으로 운동 시 폐가 차갑고 건조한 공기에 장시간 노출됨에 따라 운동 유발성 천식과 운동유발성 알레르기 반응이 초래된다. 이러한 반응은 음식 알레르기와도 함께 나타나는데, 음식 알레르기가 있는 사람은 운동 시 더욱 알레르기 반응이 증가하게 되고, 음식 알레르기가 나타나지 않은 사람도 특정 음식 섭취 후 격렬한 운동 시 운동 유발성 알레르기가 나타나기도 한다. 이는 일반적으로 소화된 음식물이 장으로 지나갈 때, 혈액의 IgA가 덜 소화된 단백질을 혈액으로 들어오는 것을 방어해 주지만, 결렬한 운동이나 스트레스 상황에서는 IgA가 감소하게 되고, 이러한 상황에서 음식 유발성 알레르기 질환이 나타나게 되는데, 운동 시 이러한 반응이 더욱 심화되며 운동 유발성 알레르기 아나플락시스로 나타나기도 한다. 운동 유발성 알레르기 질환은 운동의 방법, 종류 및 수행되는 운동시간 등에 따라 깊은 관련이 있으며, 임상적인 징후로는 심한 기침, 가슴의 답답함, 호흡 곤란, 쌕쌕거림의 현상, 피부두드러기 및 혈관부종, 심할 경우 혈관파괴 등의 현상이 나타나고, 돌연사의 원인이 되기도 한다. 격렬한 운동은 과 호흡을 유발시키고, 이로 인해 폐의 비만세포가 증가하게 되며, 증가된 비만세포에서 나오는 히스타민이 알레르기 반응을 유발한다. 운동 유발성 두드러기나 아나필락시스 진단에 있어 가장 중요한 사항은 가족력과 병력에 대한 사항이며, 이외에도 메타콜린 피부 반응검사 등이 있다. 치료는 일상생활에서 활동의 수준과 범위를 수정하는 하는 것이 핵심이며, 이를 위해서는 전문가를 통한 환자 교육이 매우 중요하며, 식후에는 시간을 두고 운동해야 한다. 그리고 운동전 알레르기를 유발하는 음식물의 섭취를 제한해야 한다. 본 연구자는 운동 알레르기와 관련된 인자를 크게 운동 시의 환경과 음식물로 구분하고, 여러 문헌을 고찰하여, 운동 시 일어날 수 있는 알레르기 반응을 미연에 방지하고, 운동을 수행하는 엘리트 운동선수 및 동호인, 운동을 지도하는 지도자, 스포츠 산업에 종사하는 사람들에게 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다.
